Coco grow - packing the weight

I am very curious if there is any product that adds to weight when growing in coco.
Maybe similar to liquid Carboload.
I think that liquid carb needs to bee given with zyme to help breaking the sugars.

I intend to finish with H&G coco base and liquid kool bloom, but still want to know what gives the wight.

carboload doesnt put on weight and zyme products dont break down sugars
you want to add mag/sulfur - use epsom
you want to add sugar and mag/sulfur - use molasses
if your environment is dialed in you would be spending less time worrying about adding weight and more time worrying if youre going to walk into a room full of collapsed plants
peace

Can't you see I am not fixing smithing, dawg?
I don't intend to use any sulfur / molasses for now. There has to be a time in mans life when he ask question, half pint.
I never heard Epsom does anything for the weight. Molasses. How does it do it? Over a long period of time I would think

See my point man, comrade Stalin said: "Learn,learn, and when you think you know it all, learn some more"
Growing is not only something I like to do, it became my profession (I said that).
Thanks heaven and comrade Lenin I hang out with you, my sweet Coconutz. I have to learn something new every day.

Fuckin looser mr. gorbachev broke down Berlin Wall.
As big growing enthusiast and a well recognized coco whisperer as you can break down molasses and Epsom in heartbeat.

I am not being sarcastic. I love your work.
But wait... You just don't want to. You don't want to explain. Is this money? Anyone you need taking care of?

First u need the environment dialed without that no additive or co2 will make a difference. .. carboload aint a bloom booster.. just carbs n sugars.... there r alot of boosters out there they all work kind of.... i like moab best outta all i tried... bloombastic is good to... nuthin wrong with ol school kool bloom powder... but none will improve nething prob cause more probs unless plants r happy to begin with. ..

The happiness of the plants..!! It took me years (and coconutz baseball bat and that naked chik in his sig) to start feeling it.
This is know now as A B C ... If plants are not as happy as they can be, don't bloom. Get them happy. Keep them happy.

You see, when I started in this business, I was thought what to add, how much and when.
I grew in peat moss and I was adding total of 9 adds on top of the base.
What was even stranger, the person who used the recipie with those 9 was growing watermelon size colas that would stink 6 blocks away and buyers were waiting to buy his stuff.

You can imagine it was a hell of a shift to drop the list and start getting plants happy.
So with that pre requisit in place I s just looking for something that surely add an oz or 2. That s all

Also fwiw, the biggest yields I have seen have been off slow and steady feeding. For what ever reason, most people slightly overfeed and cause issues. If you can get all the way through flower giving them just what they need life will be awesome.
